Swamp Creek Improvements
Location: Kenmore, WA As upstream development increased near Kenmore, the flooding conditions of Swamp Creek continually worsened, with the Creek draining a 25-square-mile urban area. Having identified several flood-reduction measures, the City selected Otak to design and manage construction for the first phase, which included replacing the 73rd Avenue NE Bridge with a longer, clear-spanning, concrete girder bridge; constructing a levee adjacent to the bridge to protect homes and the school access road; and reconstructing approximately 3,000 feet of 73rd Avenue NE to provide flood protection and bring the roadway up to minor arterial standards. |
